After four thunder-quake shots from the elephant gun, it was retired in favour of the less ear-shattering assault rifles. Unspoken, a rhythm developed. Each firing in a separate arc, and ignoring the crawling undead now around and beneath the truck, they methodically mowed down the undead, and were almost out of ammo when Clyde and Oakes returned with one of the sailors who’d been guarding the boat, Baxter.

All three clambered atop the wrecked airplane engine. As Tess, Toppley, and Leo ceased fire, the crawling undead emerged from beneath the truck, squirming towards the gunshots from atop the charred engine. Even as they died, the air filled with a different sound, a second engine, belonging to another bone-crunching earth-mover. Aboard were Hawker, Mackay, and ten African Union soldiers.

Tess righted one of the salvaged chairs, and sat. “It’s not over. Not yet, but I reckon we’ve earned a breather.”
